Higher education in Colombia
After receiving secondary education, students take the ICFES test - a good result will open access to education.
Local and international students can go to university to complete a vocational, technical or technology degree at the end of their studies. At technological institutes, students are awarded exclusively a bachelor's degree, and studying at private or public universities allows them to obtain a master's degree, especially with regard to the development of scientific disciplines, as well as marketing, finance, mechanical engineering and health care.
Bachelor's programs at Colombian universities are designed for 5 years of study: for 3 years, students master the special technical skills that they will need to build a career. Then you can get a master's degree or a Ph. D.
